Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is all set to don the grease paint again. The actress, who had taken a break from films after delivering the baby, is ready to return with a bang. Surprisingly, the Bollywood diva has opted for a Tamil flick over other projects for her comeback. But many are wondering why she okayed a regional film instead of a big banner Hindi flick.

Kalari Fighter

"Aishwarya was really impressed with the script. She will be seen in a never seen before powerful role. She will essay a Kalari fighter in the film and for the same she will undergo special stunt training," Vasu said in a statement.

Script

P Vasu took two years to pen the script. He has also signed Animatronics expert from France to work for the project.

Visual Effects

"Major visual effects companies are being considered. Animatronics expert from France are being hired for the visual effects in the film, which will be shot in exotic locales of North Indian and some important portions in Cambodia," he added. More details on the project will be out in the coming days.
